GORED

GORED REVIEWED

“Gored” offers unprecedented access to the world of bullfighting. As the “sport” fades, we find Antonio Barrera trying to hang onto what’s left of his career. While the documentary plays short, it doesn’t stick to the sadness of the collapse of bullfighting. Sure, we don’t get the perspective of what’s happening to the bulls, but Barrera tries to make sense of what’s going down. Still, why couldn’t we get a combination of Barrera’s 23 gorings on film? There has to be entertainment value there. Check it out, people.

The Plot Thus Far

Known as the "Most Gored Bullfighter in History," Antonio Barrera has been impaled 23 times in the bullring. Now with a family to consider and a body that won't hold up, Barrera decides to face the bulls one last time, desperate for a taste of elusive glory. Written and Produced by award-winning filmmakers Ido Mizrahy and Geoffrey Gray ("Patrolman P") and directed by Mizrahy, "Gored" captures the brutality and beauty inherent in Spanish bullfighting as Barrera braces for his retirement with one final performance.
